Before anyone freaks out…No, this recipe does not include alcohol. Just delicious tropical ingredients that will leave you daydreaming about sitting on the beach instead of at your computer all day!
Ingredients that you need to make this recipe
- Rolled Oats – choose a certified gluten-free brand (like Bob’s Red Mill) if needed
- Fresh Pineapple Chunks – or canned if you prefer
- Canned Coconut Milk
- Sliced Almonds
- Shredded Coconut
- Honey*, Agave Nectar or Coconut Sugar if needed
How to make Pina Colada Overnight Oats
Add oats to a glass mason jar, or container of your choice, then add the pineapple pieces.
Pour the coconut milk over the pineapple. Add honey* or sweetener if needed.
Top with shredded coconut and almond slices.
Place lid on container and store in the refrigerator overnight. Grab a spoon and enjoy!
Top with a cherry for a “real” Pina Colada feel. Heck, you could even throw a cute little umbrella in there if you like! Feel free to add additional coconut or almonds before serving if desired.
Recipe Notes & Tips:
- Use full-fat, canned coconut milk or cream. Do not use Coco Lopez Coconut Cream! It is loaded with sugar and way too sweet.
- For gluten-free, choose a certified gluten-free Old-Fashioned Rolled Oats like Bob’s Red Mill. Otherwise, Quaker Oats work great.
- I used the pre-cut pineapple pieces from the produce section. Canned chunks will also work, but may not be as sweet.
- If your pineapple is sweet, you will not need to add sweetener. Taste it and adjust as needed.
- Use any type of nuts that you like; macadamia, walnuts, pecans, etc.
- For vegan*, substitute agave nectar or coconut sugar if needed.
- This recipe is best eaten the next day, but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days.
